Last week, Bon-Ton filed paperwork detailing its plans and shortage of cash.

Documents exchanged between the company and debtholders put the company's cash balance at no more than $7 million as it heads into what is typically one of the slowest quarters for retailers, according to Bloomberg.

The department-store chain has struggled with debt and slumping sales. Bloomberg reported the company planned to file for bankruptcy protection.

“As part of the comprehensive turnaround plan we announced in November, we are taking the next steps in our efforts to move forward with a more productive store footprint,” said Bill Tracy, president and chief executive officer for The Bon-Ton Stores, in a statement. “We remain focused on executing our key initiatives to drive improved performance in an effort to strengthen our capital structure to support the business going forward.”

The company also announced specific stores it planned to close.

Herberger’s Clearance Center in Maplewood, Minn., a suburb of St. Paul, is the only Minnesota store on the list. No North Dakota stores are listed.
